I didn't know we were calling it "ripped from us" when a guy verbals to a school before he even has an OSU offer. 
The course looks good, my swing feels good, I like our chances. |

Harvey wide receiver Fields makes commitment to OSU
Wednesday, February 20, 2008 Tim Warsinskey
Plain Dealer Reporter
Harvey junior wide receiver Chris Fields said he couldn't resist the call of Ohio State.
"I was intending to take official visits to my top five schools after all my offers came in, but Ohio State called me and I said, What's better than Ohio State coaching-wise and in atmosphere?' It all came together," he said.
On Tuesday afternoon, Fields accepted a scholarship offer almost immediately after it was made by OSU football coach Jim Tressel.
 Fields is a lifelong Buckeyes fan, but said there were other more influential factors, including the relationship he has built with Ohio State assistant coach Taver Johnson. "We have a good relation ship and that's the most im portant thing," Fields said.
Fields (6-1, 180 pounds) is the top-ranked junior wide receiver in Ohio and the 81st-ranked player in the nation overall, according to rivals.com.

Top receiver wastes no time committing

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
Chris Fields believes in the adage of look before you leap. That's why it was deceiving yesterday when it appeared he couldn't wait to become the seventh commitment to Ohio State's 2009 football recruiting class.
The receiver from Painesville, Ohio, did make his pledge moments after getting the scholarship offer from OSU, but he said his reaction was not knee-jerk.
"It was all planned out," Fields said.
Fields, 6 feet 1, 181 pounds, already had offers from Penn State, Illinois and Kansas, among others. He had wowed many with his showing last week at the National High School All-Star Combine workouts at the Cleveland Browns' facility in Berea, Ohio, where he ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash and had a vertical leap of 38 inches.
